  1. You are not bedding them in properly then. They worked for 30mins because sanding removed the glaze, but they just glaze over again as you dont bed them in properly. Look it up on google. Basically you want to drive around at about 40km hr and keep applying your brakes and releasing, the idea is to not heat them up much at all, while wearing them in to the shape of the disc. So about 10-20 light applications of the brakes, no heavy stopping or anything.
  2. what? I have 2 broken studs and have never had a leaking problem???
  3. Name and shame the workshop please. That is a serious error of judgement right there, for the sake of perhaps half an of saved labour, these guys have put your motor at risk.
  4. Ive got an rb30 turbo with a really quiet exhaust. The car seems to drive perfectly, run really smoothly. Are you saying It could just pre ignite at any time or be detonating and i wouldnt even hear it? I thought pre ignition sounded like a marble or something in your cylinder, like a really pronounced bang? Also what is the optimal spark plug to run in it. Its a standard N/a motor, high comp, n/a cam etc, with vlt injectors, vlt computer, stock manifold turbo etc. Will be installing water injection soon and trying to push it to 14psi. From what ive read if i get the water right i can lean it out a bit even on the n/a high comp motor. Only problem with doing that is if the water fails then almost certainly your motor will too. Its been going for 2000km and the sparkplugs have no signs of wear, this is a good sign of no detonation right? And in your opinion how much longer (i,e a few seconds?) can forgies handle pre ignition for versus cast pistons? Kind regards, Jason.
  5. A little off topic but cops dont always ride in commodores and falcons. I was up behind kariong shell loitering about one night about 2 years ago, the shittest little car came up, like one of the smallest cars on the road i think it was a charade, late 80's model or something, anyway pulled up and 5 cops jumped out in jumpsuits, started harrassing all of us.
  6. Dude how does it require skills. You mash the pedal and brake etc, dump the clutch is manual.. and steer. That is it. Anyone could do it.
  7. Yes, its like a clutch it wears out over time. Changing the fluid will help keep wear to a minimum, but its not going to help AT ALL gain any lost LSD back.
  8. I guess we are too nice to chicks on here. Ill be honest, a diff for 4k your getting fkn ripped and the whole this is just a stupid idea. Oh, and pics or GTFO!!
  9. whats a leak down test?
  10. Wow that looks the goods. 6 stage dry sump!!
  11. What if i told you a way you could double or tripple that money in under 5 years, or have over 8 million bucks in the bank by the time you retire?? Do not spend 40g on a motor . The 1000hp r33 that jeremy clarkson was reviewing was selling for 50 000 pounds, and had a 150 000 pound motor lol Its a false economy.
  12. yea u should bring the 31 man
  13. I thought to bleed the brakes, put pressure on the pedal, open nipple until pedal stops, close nipple, release pedal, repeat over and over.
  14. well thats why i was asking if its ok to do it...thanks for you informative answer...not
  15. lol. I use syringes, 200cc.
